ISO 14443 global standardization means that all rfid that comply
will work with wireless mobility.
This increases interoperability and therefore greatly enhances
control over the masses.
The contactless chips contain more information and biometrics on
their chip, than do ordinary rfid tags.
Since this eliminates swiping, we can see how the right hand ( or
forehead) will use an
ISO14443 passive rfid chip for rapid response within the
System.

Contactless Tracking is something the System does --- often times
without the citizen knowing he is being tracked by
a scanner ( an interrogator ) .
Contactless chips, or proximity chips, give the System more
control, and the citizen less -- or no -- control.

card technology developed by Sony.
As the name stemming from the word "felicity" suggests,
the system was born to make daily living easier and more convenient.
The card is difficult to forge/reconstruct, and allows to
send/receive data at high speed and with high security. The
system is also environment-friendly since the card can be used
over-and-over virtually forever byrewriting
the data.
It also features ultimate user-ease, as would be expected from a
contactless card, since there is no longer any need to retrieve
and put away the card for every use.
All-in-all, the system is rational throughout, since one card is
enough to provide for various purposes.http://www.sony.net/Products/felica/http://www.sony.net/Products/felica/contents02.html

Octopus Card ( no coins ) "Sammy Kam: RFID and contactless
smart cards share the same basic technologyyou have a small
chip with an antenna that serves two purposes: one is to
communicate with the reader using radio frequency, and the other
is to create just enough power to power the chip for processing.
RFID is basically for identification: the reader will check the
ID of the chip and send that info to a back-end system for
processing.
But contactless smart cards have more functions: you
can write information into the chip, and you
have built-in security functions."

One technology currently under
development is near field communication, or NFCits a
joint venture between Sony and Philips. It links two electronic
devices like a card with a mobile phoneits like
Bluetooth but requires closer proximity, about 10 centimeters.
The standard is compatible with contactless smart cards, and will
allow usersin the near futureto use a compatible
phone and SIM card like an Octopus card. Its being used now

cards with blink will also allow us to reward cardmembers at the
point-of-sale and provide merchants and our cobrand partners with
an opportunity to build even stronger customer loyalty
programs."Beginning with the first market, Chase will launch a fully
integrated marketing and advertising campaign to help educate and
excite local consumers and cardmembers about Chase cards with
blink. The local campaigns will encourage cardmembers to "blink

Privacy concerns over contactless ID card Eight companies are vying to produce the new
passports, including Axalto, a French
company with a manufacturing facility in Owings Mills,
Md.[ Ed : Where
the VeriChip Registry-Database is located ] All
of the companies are developing and testing technology under
standards developed by the United
Nations' International Civil Aviation Organization.
The standards would allow other countries to develop the same
kind of passports and visas, said Kelly Shannon, a spokeswoman
for the State Department's Bureau of Consular Affairs.
Those standards require that the tags can be decoded only by
readers no more than 4 inches away.The tags are in heavy use, with 20 billion smart
card units shipped around the globe last year, Vanderhoof said.
They are being tested for other uses, such as for access
to computer systems that require user names and
passwords--a potential relief for workers who cannot remember
passwords that can change every 90 days, and the operators who
manage those systemshttp://www.chicagotribune.com/business/chi-0505310005may31,1,591808.story?coll=chi-business-hed

Electronic contactless passport border control
The system is able to read and validate the holder of the new
electronic passports in accordance with standards now being
introduced in many countries around the world. The verification
demonstrator optionally takes the facial, fingerprint
oriris information stored in a contactless
ePassport and verifies against the person standing in the gate.
Precise Biometrics' subsystem verifies the identity of
that person against the contactless passport
presented to the system. ICAO (International
Civil Aviation Organization).
"Our range of ImmSec gates are designed to make use of the
new ePassports or other electronic ID cards containing biometrics
as in Simplified Passenger Travel schemes. We are delighted to
work with Precise Biometrics on this specific exhibition for the
IFSEC trade fair." http://www.secureidnews.com/weblog/2005/05/19/precise-biometrics-introduces-first-multibiometric-verification-station/

e-passports
Promoters of advanced contactless technologies, like
Gemplus of France - which is making e-passports for
Singapore, Denmark, Sweden and Norway - say it can safeguard data
because the chip uses software that must give confirmation
before any data are transferred. Another solution being floated
is to render e-passports more secure by issuing them with a
metallic lining that makes skimming more difficult

Privacy advocates and conspiracy theorists, however, say the only
reason a government would use a contactless chip that at best
saves about 10 seconds per scan is to
keep tabs on people

Companies fighting for market share include Gemplus,
Oberthur and Axalto, all of which are French, as well as SuperCom
of Israel and Infineon Technologies of Germany. The U.S.
government in October chose Axalto, SuperCom
and Infineon to take part in a testing phase for
eventual work on its own e-passports, which it plans to begin
phasing in this year with a final switchover in a decadehttp://www.iht.com/articles/2005/05/22/business/wireless23.phpThe System
can also track those without the VeriChip, due to REAL ID.Since
the System knows that many people will not take the internal
VeriChip, they now have a way of tracking and locating those
people through a "smart rfid contactless chip" in a
card which transmits a code, along with one's unique
identifying number.
That code opens up the mega-database.

The contactless chip in that case is external, since it will be
embedded in one's National ID Card ... the REAL ID ( reformatted
driver's license ). It will not be implanted in the body.
Now *
ALL * people --
whether they have an internal contactless chip, or an external
contactless chip ---
can be tracked, monitored, located and eventually controlled.

It is imperative for the System to operate with contactless chips
in order to work with the coming subdermal chip in the right hand
or forehead, as foretold 2000 years ago in the Book of Revelation
/ Apocalypse .

GRADUALISM
As you can see, this technology is being implemented step by
step, country by country, technique by technique. Then all of the
sudden, it will completely enclose the whole world in a
totalitarian way.

God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of a sound mind.
We have a Blessed Hope that transports us into heaven before the
hour of temptation comes :
"which is coming upon the whole world " Rev.
3:10.

We will not need an ISO 14443 contactless chip, nor will we need
an iris scan or fingerprint or subdermal chip in order to enter
into the heavenlies on that Day of Christ ( the Rapture).

But we will need ears to hear.

Japan's ID card : ISO rfid
contactlessThe license/ID cards will contain an 8KB
contactless chip and

interoperable with current and upcoming readers that will be
released specifically for the new system.

The R2R superset can receive and transmit
data to and from one's
rfid chip. That being the case, it is most likely that code
numbers would signify certain categories that befit the
chip-carrier. These code numbers would change according to the
status of the card holder.

Also personal information could be updated on the chip
whenever one's address, phone,
job info, etc. changes.............R2R.... Reader to Reader Superset deviceR2R, a superset of and an open standard
alternative to the Near Field Communication
The R2R™ feature allows a device to behave both
as a reader and as a card. 2 - way device
An R2R™ device can receive commands
from any standard proximity contactless reader and send back responses
the same way a contactless smart card would do. Using this
feature, a consumer electronic device can interact
with the millions of readers already installed worldwide, to
exchange data or to perform secure transactions,
using different access protocols, including ISO 14443 A/B, ISO
15693, as well as FeliCa™ protocols.

R2R™ is not a new standard, but is a way to
use the existing international standards ISO/IEC 14443 (proximity) and15693 (vicinity).

R2R™ also is compatible with the recently announced NFC
(Near Field Communication) technology from Philips, with the
advantage that it is compatible with the existing
installed base of RFID readers.
This positions R2R as a superset and an open
standard alternative to the NFC.http://www.smartcardstrends.com/det_atc.php?idu=1624

In the above article about the Japanese ID card, you will
notice that it says that these chips will be installed in
cars. That means as you pass by a reader terminal into any border

tag information can be communicated in real-time through WiFi,
CDMA, GSM or Bluetooth connections.The second market (what Mr. Tam calls the horizontal or
consumer market) involves contactless payments, e-commerce,
product authentication, and point of salesIn other words, the NFC-based SDiD card would allow PDA
and smartphone users to access product information or
entertainment content such as pictures, music and video clips by
waving their mobile devices in front of a smart poster or kiosk.
[ Ed. note: soon it will be a
wave of the right hand ]

Another use is that they can exchange such information
with other users through NFC or mobile connection of their
devices, said Mr. Tam[ Comment from
a friend : When cellphones start having RFID readers, it is a bit
difficult to understand who is tracking whom. The answer is
not clear. For example, a NFC reader could send a ID number
that it reads to a central server. If this ID were to be
associated with a position, the NFC reader becomes a
highly accurate location tracking device. rms ]http://www.rfidnews.org/library/2005/04/03/rfid-in-sd-cards/

Contactless PaymentsMasterCard International's
new OneSMART PayPass, an EMV-based
smart card featuring the M/Chip,
will enable customers in regions where EMV smart cards
predominate, such as Europe, to gain more benefits from
contactless payments.The experience of
using the contactless element of PayPass or OneSMART PayPass will
be identical, said Ms. Rae.

Contactless chips in documents, passports The distinction is
part of an effort by the Department
of Homeland Security
and one of its RFID suppliers, Philips
Semiconductors, to
brand RFID tags in identification documents as "proximity chips,"
"contactless chips"
or "contactless integrated circuits"
-- anything but "RFID." The department is also
evaluating technology pitches from several RFID tag
manufacturers, including Philips, for an RFID-tagged passport
containing biometric data. The government's plan will earn
billions of dollars for the RFID suppliers while helping
security officials track individuals more effectively by
detecting their ID documents' radio signals in airport terminals,
or wherever reader devices are present

And," said [
David ] Wagner, "unlike an ID with a bar code or magnetic
strip, you'd
never know your card has been read."
RFID manufacturers are typically making radio tags for ID
documents that comply with ISO/IEC 14443, the contactless chip
industry technology standard. This standard limits transmission
ranges to a distance of about 4 inches. Other RFID tags can be read at
distances up to 30 feet,
making them easier targets for identity thieves trying to capture
their data, said Broghamer.

Broghamer would not
admit to something engineers testing ISO/IEC 14443-compliant
chips have demonstrated, however: that electronic eavesdroppers
up to 30 feet away can capture data (including biometric records)
while it is being sent by the chips to an authorized reader
devicehttp://www.wired.com/news/privacy/0,1848,67025,00.htmlrms

Smart Card: "Common Access Card" ( CAC)
For example, a smart card equipped with a battery, data display,
and keypad would enable users to view their current balance of
electronic purse applications, recent credit card transaction
information, or bank account balance information. These
capabilities could also be utilized to enhance security with
password-enabled credit card functions.

Smart cards are being utilized in
great numbers for access control systems, storage of biometric
data, national border control, and in many other applications.
For example, the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD)
Common Access Card (CAC) project requires a
contactless chip to contain biometric data
about a citizen including a digitized portrait and fingerprint
data.
These patents position CardXX as a leader in next generation
smart card manufacturing, and will enable the production of cards
incorporating batteries, data displays,
keypads, chemical sensors, fingerprint sensors, and other
electronic components that are generally not
found in conventional smart cards. The unique capabilities of the
low-temperature, low-pressure polymer injection molding technique
employed by CardXX are very well suited to the manufacture of
next generation smart cards, thus enabling a wide range of new
smart card applicationshttp://home.businesswire.com/portal/site/google/index.jsp?ndmViewId=news_view&newsId=20050324005071&newsLang=en

Immigration: Biometric in International Civil Aviation Org.The new passports,
which are being introduced concurrently by the 27 nation members
of the International Civil Aviation Organization (i.e. the
European Union, Australia, Japan) in 2005 - 2006 will be used as
part of a multination test to determine whether the systems
developed by different governments are compatible with each other
and can be processed effectively by border officials, ideally at
all international ports of entry.Called
a biometric identifier, a chip will be
embedded in the passport cover and will contain the same
information that appears on the data page, including the bearer's
